Western University neuroscientists are studying brain in a way that mimics real life by having people play video games inside an fMRI scanner.

The role of the cerebellum in motor functions is well understood. But why is the same circuitry engaged in functions such as working memory, language, and social cognition? This Unsolved Mystery looks...

Essays on neuroscience

Sequential movements rely on two information sources: external sensory cues and internal memory representations. Although often both sources jointly drive sequential behavior, previous research has pr...

One of four language-responsive cerebellar regions may encode meaningful information, much like the cortical language network in the left hemisphere, according to a new study.

Using infant fMRI, the authors show that, by 2 months of age, representations in high-level visual cortex encode visual categories that align with deep neural networks, and lateral object-selective re...

The brain strengthens memories through consolidation, defined as resistance to interference (stabilization) or performance improvements between the en…
